Miltiades Posted February 2, 2008 Posted February 2, 2008 Man, they're already selling it along with cheat codes... I wonder if there will be any cheat codes to buff up your Force Powers... Force Pushing Stormtroopers into space would be so cool... or not...
Rev7 Posted February 2, 2008 Posted February 2, 2008 ^It all depends on your point of view. Anyways, those are some cool pictures of Vader being all beat up. I too, just continue to get more and more exited for TFU.
DAWUSS Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 I think the Secret Apprentice dies because there's no mention of him in the OT era (OOU because this is his first appearance, obviously), and IMO a fight against Darth Vader which ends with a beat-up Vader and a dead SA could be one way of fulfilling that.

He could always go in hiding or just disappear... to reappear in the Legacy comics! Though I think the SA dying in the game to be most likely (although LA mentioned they were already planning a sequel).
Xaris Vynn Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 I don't think that Vader doing a good deed would be the cause of his injuries, because by then end of "Dark Lord The rise of Darth Vader" he is Bad as can be, and that book takes place weeks after he gets his black suit. I don't want to presume too much but it would be more likely the Emperor find out aout the SA and makes vader and the SA fight for the position at his right hand. Is LA releasing this for PC I think Moddong this game would be awesome!!
TKA-001 Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 I don't think that would happen. Palpatine can't make the Apprentice and Vader fight each other because they're both allies. I think it would make more sense if Palpatine figures out about Secret Apprentice somehow and sends an Inquisitor (such as Jerec) or Emperor's Hand (such as Cronal) to kill Apprentice. I suppose Juno Eclipse would have to die too, since she had been involved in a plot to kill the Emperor.
DAWUSS Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 I think it would be too early for Palpatine to be able to confirm Vader's attempt of usurping him. I mean, what happens under the event if Vader tried and failed? The outcome would either throw Star Ward history off balance with Vader being executed, or some lame(expletive) forgiveness thingy from Palpatine. Obviously, the Apprentice's fate isn't set in stone, as opposed to Vader and Palpatine, which gives the Apprentice's role a bit more flexibility.

Well, it's nice to know not everything's already known to us in the game.
TKA-001 Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Who says Palpatine would figure out that Vader put the Apprentice up to bumping him off? All he could know is that there's some Dark Jedi running around blowing his stuff up.

No, seriously, if someone caught his eye, he'd be on him in no time and the trail would lead him to Vader.
adamqd Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Palpatine knows everything! No, seriously, if someone caught his eye, he'd be on him in no time and the trail would lead him to Vader. Agreed, also, I'm unsure how/why/if the Emperor doesn't know of the Apprentice's existence, I'm pretty sure most Sith/Jedi and especially someone as powerful as Sidious could sense someone with his power/potential a Galaxy away...
Son of Skywalker15 Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Well, we know that the SA is killing stormtroopers because he wants no witnesses. So, you figure, the Emperor would know only by sensing. Now, Jedi have been able to hide their presence (Jacen Solo) so maybe the SA does, considering he's so powerful.

Now, Jedi have been able to hide their presence (Jacen Solo) so maybe the SA does, considering he's so powerful. Yeah, I think so too. It's been a long time since I saw it, but I thought the Emperor couldn't feel Luke's presence and only knew Luke was on Endor because Vader knew in Episode VI?
Son of Skywalker15 Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 I thought the Emperor couldn't feel Luke's presence and only knew Luke was on Endor because Vader knew in Episode VI? This is correct. Vader could feel Luke, but Palpatine couldn't. I never really understood why, however. He was a powerful force user, so I don't really know why he couldn't sense him. The common factor, if you will, though is also being very powerful in the force.....
TKA-001 Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 he'd be on him in no time and the trail would lead him to Vader. How exactly would he follow a trail to Vader? [As of now] Only Vader, the Apprentice, and probably Juno Eclipse know that the SA is working for Vader.
Miltiades Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 How exactly would he follow a trail to Vader? [As of now] Only Vader, the Apprentice, and probably Juno Eclipse know that the SA is working for Vader. Meetings between Vader and the apprentice, or communication between the two in any way possible? Or the fact that if they're on the SA's trail, they're also on Juno's trail and the droid's trail. Like I said, Palpatine finds a way.
adamqd Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 This is correct. Vader could feel Luke, but Palpatine couldn't. I never really understood why, however. He was a powerful force user, so I don't really know why he couldn't sense him. The common factor, if you will, though is also being very powerful in the force..... I think it was a ploy by Sidious to test Vader, and a move by Lucas to emphasize the connection between Father and Son
Ztalker Posted February 14, 2008 Author Posted February 14, 2008 Agreed. The relationship with the SA could 'do something' with Vader. Maybe the first seeds of rebelling against his master are planted here (Together WE can rule the Galaxy as father and son!). The theory of 'another test' seems rather good as well. But then again...if Vader is so darn powerfull, why send a boy?
Son of Skywalker15 Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 I think it was a ploy by Sidious to test Vader, and a move by Lucas to emphasize the connection between Father and Son I'd have to agree, especially with the second part. However, they aren't father and son.... unless...... nah :
DarthSomething Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Son of Obi-Wan?..... another topic, Found this pic of the Secret apprentice Evolution toy pack, I guess it is the 3 possible outcomes of the game, Neutral, Lightside, darkside Storyline... Nope. From left to right: Secret Apprentice, Secret Apprentice's dad, Previously mentioned Grievous/HK-47 style character
Son of Skywalker15 Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Secret Apprentice, Secret Apprentice's dad, Previously mentioned Grievous/HK-47 style character While you could be right, the box states, "The Secret Apprentice," "Jedi Knight," and "Sith Lord." Where's your proof that it's who you say?
Miltiades Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Nope. From left to right: Secret Apprentice, Secret Apprentice's dad, Previously mentioned Grievous/HK-47 style character Nope. It's the Secret Apprentice, the Secret Apprentice's mom and on the right is his dad. Seriously, the one on the right looks like he has an Ubese mask on. Maybe he's an Ubese Sith Lord!
PoiuyWired Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Hmmm the middle one. Is it him being a Jedi, or is it some soon-to-be sithlord famous Jedi knight? But given that hes arm is un ObiWane this may yet be another character. Everyone knows ObiWan's arm collection in his freezer on Tatooine.
adamqd Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 The pack they come in is called the "Secret Apprentice" "Evolution" pack, meaning it is the evolution of the yet unnamed one, i.e him at different stages of his story. it is the same as the Evolutions Anakin to Vader pack. If it had characters as well as the SA it would be called the Force Unleashed: Evolutions or something.
